## Summary

The Environment Agency has completed the tender process titled "Supply of ENV Agriculture WR Resilience" within the environmental services industry sector. This contract pertains to regional water resources planning across various locations, including the United Kingdom and several overseas territories. The procurement stage has reached the award phase, with the contract starting on 1st June 2024 and concluding by 31st March 2025. The total contract value is £80,000. Key deadlines included the tender period ending on 8th May 2024. The procurement method used was direct, involving a single tender action below the threshold, indicating a non-competitive bidding process. 

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in environmental services, particularly those focused on improving water resource resilience for the agricultural sector. SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) are especially suitable to compete in such tenders due to their flexibility and specialised expertise. The awarded supplier, Severn Trent Water, will work on projects designed to enhance the capacity of regional groups, fostering collaboration and integrating strategic water planning into the agricultural sector. Business growth can be achieved by contributing innovative solutions to the national framework for water resources, thereby expanding their service portfolio and strengthening their market presence. This opportunity also aligns with the government’s broader commitment to sustainable environmental practices and regional planning improvements.

## Notice

The Environment Agency's National Framework for Water Resources, published in March 2020, explored England's long-term water needs, setting out the scale of action needed to ensure resilient supplies and an improved water environment. The framework marked a shift towards strategic regional planning, where five regional groups form regional plans to build water resilience. In a joint letter from Defra, the Environment Agency, and Ofwat to Regional Groups on 11 January 2023 we confirmed the next round of regional water resources planning. A refreshed national framework is currently being prepared, which will set out expectations for the next round of regional plans. The refreshed national framework will present a strong direction for improving multi-sector inclusion in planning for future water needs. At the Farm to Fork Food Summit (May 2023) the Prime Minister made commitments around improving water resources planning for the agriculture sector and followed this up with a further commitment at the NFU conference (February 2024). From these commitments Defra have supplied funding to the Environment Agency to support agricultural water resources planning and resilience. Part of this funding is to be supplied to the Regional Groups with the purpose of developing their capacity to provide input to the suite of agriculture projects which will help improve water supply resilience. These include projects associated with the recently announced Government scheme to screen Local Resource Options. Government launches fund to help farmers manage water resources - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) Specific Objectives/Deliverables In order to empower Regional Groups and build the capacity of the agricultural sector to build knowledge of the resilience of their catchment, we are aiming to provide Regional Groups with the funding to carry out the following actions: * Offering Regional Groups the option to bid for additional budget for discrete agriculturally relevant projects, which can be achieved within this financial year (24/25). These bids should thoroughly outline the proposal, timescale and resources required, and ultimately how the project will feedback into, or how it would be integrated into the Regional Plan. Payment The Authority will raise purchase orders to cover the cost of the services and will issue to the awarded supplier following contract award. The Authority's preference is for all invoices to be sent electronically, quoting a valid Purchase Order number. The Supplier will be expected to invoice monthly. It is anticipated that this contract will be awarded for a period of 9 months to end no later than 31/03/2025.
